It's time to understand that prize doesn't come from "air", money are from commercials so it's time to stop crying about that , cause without those tournament wouldn't even happen.

The last game just blew my mind, HopeTorture didn't even had to make a worm, he just had to rally his units and kill the buildings blocking, I mean ITR had NO UNITS. What could he had done to defend it.

Lol, no. 95% of Terrans over platinum level would have stopped that nydus regardless of dropping or not. Still not sure how he missed it


you seem very mad my dear friend, calm yourself a little bit


I don't think he could of killed that Nydus anyway, since the tank didn't pop until just after the speedlings were coming out.

You guys act like fruit has nothing to do with ITR playing bad.

He started off fine and strong, and those mass drops he was doing on DQ would've probably owned 99% of the zergs out there. But cool, UNLIKE ANY OTHER ZERG, was able to hold on to four hatcheries at once.

In the second game he blocked the drops again. How many ppl on this forum say "lol tank drop free win on LT". Not only did he block the tank but his map control is so good he anticipated drops. ITR would've owned other zergs in that position, too.

And for the third game the drop was rather poor but you have to admit it was just genius of cool to completely plan that out. If you were in that position you'd probably think that dot on your map is an overlord not a nydus worm. This isn't mama's basement ladder.. it's a huge finals a move like that catches anyone off guard.

It's true, this isn't what anyone expected, I bet the public is unhappy with this turn of events.

Please be in the finals next time ;_;

Trolling. You have to be trolling.


Disagree with someone so the must be trolling. No I find this series exciting as hell, a lot of people were pulling for Cool but not many expected him to win, especially not to win in such a dominating fashion.

To see Cool play like this and completely take advantage of ITR's cowardly play is very very exciting to me.

Funny thing is that excitement is a perception thing, so I can understand if you disagree, but it doesn't have to mean I am trolling.


So that makes it a good series? If you watched these games in a month or so, you'd get bored after the second game, especially with how RainBOw is playing. These games are fucking terrible and not at all an example of what SC2 could be.

Now, imagine HopeTorture coming back for 4-3 - it would be the ultimate proof of his new nickname; he gave some hope, just to torture it even more.

Refresh my memory, but wasn't it Cool that made that huge splash about only winning 10% of his practice matches? Was he just throwing that # out a a joke, was that based on one day, or what?

Because right now that win% needs another 0.


His partners are Clide and Tester, so I don't think it was a joke. However their styles may be better suited to beat him than drop harass (clearly its not working).


he said he got 10% win ratio against MAKA

That tank was already waiting there along with some marines. He would have been able to kill had he not been busy with his tank up the cliff.

So when people win by guessing what their opponent is doing, it's referred to as playing and acting instinctively?

Ummmm, awesome.

I wonder if this is the result of Rainbow not having a decent zerg player to practice against.

thank you rainbow, for making zerg look good.


For me it's like when someone does play as bad as HopeTorture the other player looks like a God when he beats him. And funny thing is that Zerg's random (hidden) expansions and Nydus in a base is such a cheesy and gimmicky play. C'mon, you gotta admit that.


Jaedong made Flash look like a God in the most recent OSL finals, yet Jaedong is the 2nd best player in the world. When a good player gets an advantage over another good player, they just compound it until it looks like they're steamrolling.
